    I would also love to know if this is possible at some level.

    Hi. It should be doable with a little help from our custom information API (https://society.solibri.com/topic/563/information-api)
    What you need is information that reads the date from propertyset or something else and then possibly compares it to the current date and returns “true” or “false”.
    It could then be used in selection basket, filters and even in ITO and rule filters so you could check or calculate only “new” components.

    @marchi said in Required Classification Check (SOL 11) not working, giving wrong results, when multiple classifications are allowed?:

    The solution would be to type the searced classification with Wildcards, and they have to be before and after the searced item. Otherwise, you will only get the results where the non-searched item is after the searched one.

    Ok thanks for the hint, will try this later and see if it brings me somewhere!

  • Solibri Score and PowerBI

    on our side, we are currently developing and choosing which data we are going to use for our BI setup. So far we have been exporting xslx files from our authoring tools, which so far works fine. A live connection would be off course much better since it saves time. We are currently working on other solutions to feed data in a cleaner and reliable way that involves 3rd party apps.
    An important aspect about this topic is, that the market does not offer only Power BI, which is a Microsoft product. There are tons of other products such as Tableau, looker, google datalab, sisense and also from the open source community such as: LinceBI (our favorite), spagoBI, redash. Some even offer better options than PowerBI. Therefore, it would be nice if Solibri could offer its analytics not just to PowerBI. There is more out there, than just Microsoft 😉

    Since we are designer & engineers working on a virtual building, it is necessary to visualize the building. Additional to the diagrams and pie charts, an interactive model would be more than appreciated. There are already some solutions on the market such as Vcad and some from “proving grounds”. This way the user could inspect the data inside the model and get a better overview. Like this:
    fbb58ef7-037c-427a-86b2-b30df7cc365f-grafik.png
    Options that we would use from Solibri in the BI setting would be the classifications. In this scenario, we would get a better visual overview (including the 3D Model) of which elements have fulfilled the criteria (the same way in solibri).
    To also get a better understanding of the project development and its KPIs, the TIME factor is important. In this use case, the time stamp of a model would allow the BI to show the improvement, hence the BI should store the specified time. This can be currently easily accomplished by a spreadsheet table. Only in this way we can visualize and get better data understanding if the model is progressing or not.

    Everything else has been already mentioned in the previous post.

  • SOL/208/1.3 - checking the clear width of doors

    ?

    Hi there,

    I was looking into this rule and if I understand it correctly, the base width is taken from the quantity tab of the door minus the framing x 2 and panel.

    I saw that depending on the door that was modelled in Archicad a different quantity would come out even if it the same element.

    Sometimes I even get a quantity that doesn’t add up at all…
    851bbba7-d49e-4bd9-98f1-b043c53f7f73-image.png

    How does Solibri calculate the width of the door?

    Would it be possible to be able to choose the base width parameter of the door to take?
    Thanks a lot and best regards,

    @eruifrok said in New Score functionality:

    Which brings me to the question, would it be possible to provide users access to the data behind these graphs.

    Score data can be accessed using Solibri 9.12.6 Java API. The API documentation will be soon updated on the Solibri Developer Platform.

    Project project = SMC.getProject(); Industry industry = project.setIndustry(Industry.CONSTRUCTION); Industry industry = project.getIndustry(); List<Score> scores = project.getScores(industry, fromTime, toTime);

    @chris For me the geolocation of the models imposes in Revit and in Archicad that the models are close to the points of origin of Softwares, but that it is the coordinates (Data) of the Reference Point of Localization in Archicad and the Base Point in Revit which are informed…
    Tell me if I am wrong.

    @agroni you said : "Sorry to say, but the only thing that is correct in these coordinates is the “Z”.
    Reluctantly I I tried to leave the buildings close to the X,Y = 0 coordinates and keep the elevation relative to sea level in Archicad and Revit, but even doing this the Solibri navigation map does not adapt itself to the Z of the project:

    Example 1: if I put myself at N02 in the map, the 3D view shows me the basement!
    Vue Map.png

    Example 2: If I approach of N02 in the 3D view, the navigation map shows me the roof level rather than N02. Is this normal ?
    Vue 3D.png

    Question:
    Wouldn’t it be possible to manage in the Solibri parameters the insertion point of the IFCs files at (choice) :

    coordinates 0,0,0, of Solibri, or

    real coordinates of IFC

    @ville-reima said in No Navigation Map:

    gation map seems to have disappeared in some SMC mode

    Is this happening with all your models?
    Which Solibri version you are using?

    You could try to remove following node in Windows Registry Editor:

    Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Prefs\com\solibri\saf\plugins\java3dplugin\ui

    It stores the size of the map.
